Thanks for asking on geoserver-devel Travis, it helps to have a an email
thread to point to.
As for the importer fork:
- I have one email from Andrea (dated 03/06/2013) where he talks about
bringing this in as a community module for GeoServer.
- Looking at the history in the boundlessgeo repository -
https://github.com/boundlessgeo/geoserver-exts/commits/master/importer/pom.xml
Shows an initial commit "rmarianski authored on May 8, 2012".
So I expect the final header would be:
(c) 2014 OSGeo ...
(c) 2012-2014 OpenPlans ...
You could try doing a "git log -follow" on
https://github.com/boundlessgeo/geoserver-exts/blob/master/importer/core/src/main/java/org/geoserver/importer/csv/CSVDataStore.java
